The actions of the soldiers, the loving saints, and the hated leaders all contribute to the fulfillment of scripture, including the prophecy of the Messiah being pierced and the burial with the rich. The burial is a testament to the faith of Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus, who risked their lives to honor Jesus, and the providential power of God that orchestrated the events leading to the resurrection.

The God of Deuteronomy

The book of Deuteronomy contains laws given by Moses that are critical for Christians in living the Christian life. God's law is not just a set of rules, but a call to avoid idolatry and to have a personal relationship with Him. The law is designed to support this relationship and to warn against the great human temptation to replace God with something else. In Deuteronomy, we see a call to rest and to remember God as the rescuer of slaves, and to understand our relationships with one another in a communal spirit of mutuality. [... more]

How to Love God This Valentine's Day

The Bible says God is love, and we can show our love for Him by keeping His commandments. The first commandment is to have no other gods before Him, and the second is to worship Him in the right way, not with man-made idols. The third commandment is to not take God's name in vain, and the fourth is to remember the Sabbath day and keep it holy. However, the way we view the Sabbath has changed with the new covenant, and it's not about following a specific day, but about taking time to rest and recharge spiritually. We can find rest in the work that Christ has done and in our relationship with Him. [... more]
